Geometric Tile for the Kitchen from Mutina, Patricia Urquiola, and More

On my short jaunt last week to CERSAIE, the massive European tile show, I saw plenty of gorgeous understated tile. But the designs that really left an impression were more colorful and geometry-inspired — especially the new designs by Patricia Urquiola for luxury tile maker Mutina. Here's a peek at this lovely stuff!

TOP ROW• 1 Tex - by Raw Edges for Mutina. • 2 Tex - These tiles are simple but with a lot of potential.• 3 Tex - Laid out in some configurations they are delightfully three-dimensional. • 4 Azulej - by Patricia Urquiola for Mutina. • 5 Azulej - This line of tiles is a richly patterned set of designs that can be laid out in carpetlike combinations.
